Interview with.... The SitePoint Staff

Who are the guys behind SitePoint.com?

If you (like so many SitePoint Community Members) have ever asked yourself this question, you'll be pleased to hear that over the next few weeks we'll be running interviews with the SitePoint Staff.

How big is Kevin Yank's brain? Does Matt really count ad impressions in his sleep? Is he interchangeable with Mark? And who are those other mysterious characters (Alex, Julio, Jase and Jules)..?

I need you to tell me who you want to meet first: CEO, COO, or CTO? Designers or developers? The vital stats on our key characters are here.

Who do you want to meet? Let us know!

Yeah, I would most like to read an interview with Wayne and pretty much all the thinking that he has put behind the forums to make them what they are today.

Do you have ANY idea how hard it is to find good-looking chicks that are into web development?

To me I think Nicky is beatiful. Last I saw her site it was deatailed showed a lot about her. Personality wise she rocks. Its only an advantage that she is a web desiger but that doesn't make everything.

Hey,
Thanks for your comments (...oh, and sorry Sean, I'm too busy overcoming my fear of heights to be a contender right now... )

Looks like Wayne's first cab off the rank! Post your questions for him here (while I confirm with him that he actually *wants* to be interviewed... ).

MMJ, you don't need to be worried. You make my coffee - I'm happy to help you maintain your hard-workin', clean-livin' facade for the SPF members. Wanna be the next interviewee?

Or shall we pick brain of Nicky (the recently outed programmer) while she takes a break from her PHD, and see what other skeletons lurk in her skillset?

Yeah.. If she isn't there after 24 hours, I along with the majority of SPF Members would go on a 48 hours strike. Strike would mean that we won't visit the Forums till we see her picture on that page.
